Guide Jan 2 @ 12:47 PM Great work today, everyone! We focused on keeping our massive factory running smoothly by tackling a recurring power grid issue. The team worked on diagnosing why power keeps failing between sessions, adding battery banks to stabilize energy storage, and rerouting coal supplies. #### Tom B. Guide Dec 26 @ 12:40 PM The crew logged in to find their massive factory dark and silent. The power grid had collapsed overnight, taking nuclear reactors, fuel production, and nearly every automated system offline. Only 6 gigawatts flickered where 150 should have roared. The investigation began.
